9/27

So I'm going to a party tonight that was supposed to be a wedding but the groom was caught cheating while in rehab (and after) so wedding cancelled. However, the venue, etc. could not be cancelled so onward we go.

Today's cards:
Ace of Cups: new emotional energy, fresh starts
Seven of Pentacles: Patience, tending, waiting for results
The World: Completion of a cycle and a new beginning
Five of Cups (base): Mourning what might have been
Crown: The Fool

Pretty straightforward to read this as the story of the party today, maybe the 7P is the one that is a little tough to shoehorn in, except it could be seen as patiently awaiting a harvest or reward (supporting partner during rehab as a step toward a more complete relationship/material life) but instead finding oneself alone out in the world, but in a way that feels more complete, like the freedom from the relationship was the actual (and desired) harvest. The would-have-been bride, by the way, is bouncing back remarkably well and I wonder if she sees this as the reprieve she perhaps wanted all along.

Anyway, for me, I see this as a feeling of optimism for myself today; a call for patience and tending to a project despite being bored (i.e., continuing to work on ADHD and momentum) or perhaps literally tending to my straggly fall garden; stepping out in to the World (the party). I still have lingering sadness over an ex-friendship (5C) but the Fool has been showing up for me as an influencing energy in several readings across two decks so that is the counterbalance.
